Wheelset removal on 69

A few days ago, 69 was jacked up in the yard to free the axles after removal of the hornstays and springs 

From left to right, Katie, Cameron, Dai, Jonathan and Joe cleaning up springs

Jonathan (L) cleaning a spring whilst Joe (R) makes a start on one of the hornstays

Later in the day, 69 is jacked up higher and Michael (L), Steve (centre) and John (R) roll out the centre axle

Centre axle rolled out, Steve on the floor is knocking out the centre spring pin. This pin was blocked by the crank web when the wheelset was still under the frame, so it was rolled out with the spring still attached

All axles out
